Sheldon, sorry to read of your pain! Rotator cuff injuries take a long time to heal. Yes, anti-inflammatory meds do work, ice is helpful, and if you can, go to physical therapy! You’ll probably need a referral from your primary care doc for that though. I can relate! I’ve had rotator cuff injuries over the years. Just know it does get better. The long term after care is up to you with band exercises and strengthening shoulder muscles. Good luck! Hope the pain lessens! Christine
